Greek Yogurt Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse

A rich and creamy no-bake dessert mousse, made with canned pumpkin, Greek yogurt, and sweetened with maple syrup. Top with whipped cream and caramel sauce for a decadent fall dessert.Jump to RecipePrint Recipe There was a nip in the air on my early morning walk today that told me it’s time for all things fall! This Greek Yogurt Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse is not a typical dessert in our home, but sometimes a special dessert is warranted. And what better way to celebrate the beginning of fall than with pumpkin!

While this pumpkin cheesecake mousse is not low in calories, it’s low in effort. It’s an easy no-bake, whip-it-up dessert that can be made well ahead of time if you’re having friends over.

It’s creamy, fluffy and just lightly flavoured with pumpkin. I’m not a fan of pumpkin pie, so this pumpkin dessert is a perfect alternative for me. And being gluten-free makes it even more appealing!

This gluten-free, dairy-free Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse is easy to make!

Just whip ingredients together, whip the cream separately, fold the two together and spoon into dessert glasses. Just before serving, add a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of homemade caramel sauce, or just crumble some gluten-free ginger snap crumbs on top. So good!

Cut cream cheese into cubes, then add to a mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat until smooth. Add maple syrup, spices, pumpkin and Greek yogurt and continue beating until well blended and no lumps remain.

In a separate bowl with clean beaters, beat whipped cream until stiff peaks form. 1 1/2 cups of whipping cream will yield up to 3 cups of whipped cream. Set aside 1 cup for garnishing finished desserts. Fold the remaining 2 cups into the pumpkin mixture.

Divide among 8 dessert dishes. Chill until set. Just before serving, add a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce, if desired.
